What is energy? All matter is made of particles, so what is energy made of, if anything? Can energy ever be actually measured and observed through anything other than the effects it has on matter? Is energy less a thing in and of itself and more just an action upon matter or the potential for one?
>>16785787Energy is GOD or however the schizo hallucinates
>>16785787What type of energy do you mean?Potential or kinetic?mechanical,electrical,thermal,chemical,nuclear, radiantenergy?
>>16785792Mostly thinking of kinetic here, but was also thinking energy in general. Aren't most other forms of energy really just kinetic energy when you really break it down anyway, like heat being particles vibrating with kinetic energy?
>>16785787Energy, like every other concept construct of the human mind, is a placeholder that encompasses different kinds of properties which are agreed on by people. We use those to develop our ideas further. In other words, we use energy to describe a set of effects, product of the verbal knowledge of the workings of the universe.
>>16785787Energy is measured in Joules which is kg*m^2/s^2, so it is made of mass moving in space over time.>Is energy less a thing in and of itself and more just an action upon matter or the potential for one?Energy is derived by mass moving through space over time, first you have mass, then you have mass in a location (kg*m also called density), then when the mass moves location over time you get velocity (dx/dt or kg*m/s), then when mass changes the rate of movement over time, you get an acceleration force dx/dt2 or kg*m/s^2, then when that acceleration force is maintained over a distance, you get energy dx2/dt2 or kg*m^2/s^2.
